THE  AIR  BRAKE 


THE   AIR   BRAKE  AND  ITS 
WORKINGS. 

The  vast  and  unexampled  use  of  the  Air  Brake 
makes  a  clear  knowledge  of  it  of  vital  import- 
ance to  every  one  actively  interested  in  the 
movement  of  trains.  In  order  to  bring  this 
about  more  fully,  I  have  prepared,  as  a  supple- 
ment to  "  The  Science  of  Railways  "  the  accom- 
panying plates  and  descriptive  matter,  illustrating 
and  explaining  the  Westinghousb  Quick  Action 
Automatic  Brake  Apparatus. 

It  embraces  the  latest  improved  appliances  and 
such  as  the  Westinghouse  Company  includes 
under  that  head. 

The  diagrams,  therefore,  will  be  found  espe- 
cially interesting  and  valuable  to  all  who  have 
occasion  to  use  or  make  a  study  of  such  matters. 

Nothing  could  be  more  clear  than  the  cuts  and 
the  explanations  that  accompany  them,  as  they 
have  in  the  main  been  prepared  under  the  im- 
mediate eye  of  the  Westinghouse  Company. 

The  rapid  increase  in  the  use  of  the  "  High- 
Speed  Brake"  in  fast  express  service,  and  the 
favorable  results  obtained  in  handling  heavy 
trains  on  mountain  grades  by  the  employment  of 
the  High-Pressure  Control  Apparatus  (Plate  G  49) 
lend  especial  interest  to  the  accompanying  illus- 
trations of  these  devices,  to  which  the  attention 


4  THE  AIR  BRAKE  AND  ITS  WORKINGS, 

of  the  student  in  such  matters  is  especially 
directed. 

Attention  is  also  directed  to  Plate  G  1  which 
illustrates  the  entire  brake,  and  to  the  colored 
Plates,  G  2,  G  3  and  G  35,  which  show  the  appli- 
cation of  the  various  parts  of  the  apparatus  to 
the  engine,  tender  and  cars.  The  cuts  that  fol- 
low show,  in  detail,  the  various  parts  which  go 
to  make  up  the  complete  machine. 

In  addition  to  the  air  brake  the  Train  Air 
Signal  Apparatus  is  also  portrayed  herein.  See 
Plate  F  33. 

A  carefully  prepared  index  will  be  found  on 
pages  5  and  6. 

In  Volume  1,  Chapter  6,  of  the  ''  Science  of 
Railways,''  the  evolution  of  the  brake  is  illus- 
trated, followed  by  a  carefully  prepared  account, 
with  attendant  cuts  of  the  air  brake  and  its  con- 
struction and  management.  It  is  again  referred 
to  with  considerable  particularity  in  Volumes  4 
and  12  of  the  same  work.  This  supplement,  I 
beg  to  state,  is  not  intended  to  supersede  what  is 
said  in  the  *' Science  of  Railways''  in  regard  to 
the  air  brake,  but  to  be  auxiliary  thereto,  for  the 
better  elucidation  of  this  very  complex  and  im- 
portant feature  in  the  operation  of  trains  and  in 
the  mechanical  department  of  railroads.

RESERVOIRS. 

Main  Reservoirs  of  the  type  illustrated,  and  of  any  desired  length,  are 
manufactured  of  the  following  standard  diameters  in  iiicnes,  outsiJe 
measurement;  viz.,  16,  18^,20^,  22|,  24i,  20^,  28i,  30i,  32§,  34i,' 
36J  To  ascertain  approximate  capacity  in  cubic  inclies,  multiply 
the  square  of  the  inside  diameter  (which  is  ^  inch  less  than  the 
size  specified)  by  .7854,  and  the  product  by  the  length,  less  an 
allowance  of  three  inches  to  cover  flanges. 

Main-Reservoir  capacity  for  Passenger  Engines  should  not  be  less  than 
20,000  cubic  inches,  and  for  Freight  Engines,  not  less  than  40,000 
cubic  inches.

NOTE.-The  "  F  27  "  Triple  Valve  should  be  used  In  connection  with  the  following  apparatus 
only: 

Passenger-Car  Brake  Cylinders,  1 0  inches  AND  LESS  in  diameter ; 

High-Speed  Tender-Brake  Cylinders.  1 0  Inches  In  diameter. 

Though  similar  In  appearance,  this  valve  differs  essentially  from  the  "  F  36,"  or  Freight  Triple- 
Valve,  and  should  never  be  employed  In  connection  with  Freight-Car  Brakes.  In  common  with  the 
other  Passenger  Triple.  "  F  29,"  it  may  be  distinguished  from  the  Freight  Triple  by  the  fact  that  it  has 
but  one  exhaust  outlet  while  the  "  F  36  "  Valve  has  two.  The  three  Quick-Action  Triple- Valves  may  be 
Identified  also  by  the  bore  of  the  Slide-Valve  Bush  which  measures  1  3/8  inches  ia  the  "  F  87."  1  3/4

PLATE    F2p.    QUICK-ACTION  PASSENGER  TRIPLE  VALVE. 


TO  TRAIN    PrPE 


NOTE. -The  "  F  29 "  Triple  Valve  should  be  used  in  connection  with  Passenger-Car  Brake 
Cylinders,  12  and  14  inches  in  diameter. 

Though  similar  in  appearance  this  valve  differs  essentially  from  both  the  "F27  "  and  "F36" 
Triples,  and  should  never  be  employed  except  as  specified.  It  may  be  easily  recognized  by  means  of  the 
letter  "  O "  cast  on  the  valve  body.  'In  common  with  the  other  Passenger  Triple,  "F27,"  it  may  be 
distinguished  from  the  Freight  Triple  by  the  fact  that  it  has  but  one  exhaust  outlet  while  the  "  F  36 ' 
valve  has  two.  The  three  Quick-Action  Triple-Valves  may  be  identified  also  by  the  bore  of  the  Slide- 
Valve  Bush  which  measures  1  3/8  inches  in  the  "F27."  J  3/4  inches  in  the  "  F  29."  and  I  1  /4  inches  in  the 
"F  36  "Valve.
